A car is traveling at 24.0 m/s when the driver suddenly applies the brakes, causing the car to slow down with constant accelerat

ion. The car comes to a stop in a distance of 120 m. How fast was the car moving when it was 60.0 m past the point where the brakes were applied?

Answer:

17 m/s

Explanation:

Data

initial speed, Vi = 24 m/s

distance travelled, x = 120 m

final speed, Vf = 0 m/s

With help of the next Uniformly Accelerated Motion equation, we can compute car acceleration.

Vf² = Vi² + 2ax

a = Vf² - Vi²/(2x) 

a = 0² - 24²/(2*120) 

a = -2.4 m/s²

Now, the final speed is the unknown and the distance is 60 m:

Vf² = Vi² + 2ax

Vf = √(24² + 2*(-2.4)*60)

Vf = 17 m/s

Answer:

The answer to your question is : vf = 15.18 m/s

Explanation:

Data

vo = 24 m/s

d = 120 m

vf = ? when d = 60.0 m

Formula

              vf² = vo²  + 2ad

For d =100m

            a = (vf² - vo²) / 2d

            a = (0 -24²) / 2(100)

            a = -576/200

             a = 2.88 m/s²

Now, when d = 60

        vf² = (24)² - 2(2.88)(60)

        vf² = 576 - 345.6

        vf² = 230.4

        vf = 15.18 m/s

Aleksandr [31]

Answer: A and B

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiations are examples of electromagnetic waves with increasing frequency and decreasing wavelength in the following order radiowaves - infrared waves - visible lights - ultraviolet rays- x-rays - gamma rays.

They did not require material medium for their propagation.

The statement above shows that EM radiations possesses different wavelengths and frequency.

The electric potential difference across the membrane of a body cell is 0.070 V (higher on the outside than on the inside). The
12345 [234]

Answer:

The electric field is 8.75 \times 10^{6}~v~m^{-1} and the ditection is from outer to inner side of the membrane.

Explanation:

We know the electric field (\vec{E}) is given by \vec{E} = - \nabla V, 'V' being the potential.

In 1-D, it can be written as

E=\dfrac{V}{d}

where 'd' is the separation of space in between the potential difference is created.

Given, V = 0.070~V~ and the thickness of the cell membrane is d = 8.0 \times 10^{-9}~m.

Therefore the created electric field through the cell membrane is

E = \dfrac{0.07~V}{8 \times 10^{-9}~m} = 8.75 \times 10^{6}~m~s^{-1}

To develop muscle tone, a woman lifts a 2.50 kg weight held in her hand. She uses her biceps muscle to flex the lower arm throug
Romashka [77]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to Torque as a function of the Force in proportion to the radius to which it is applied. In turn, we will use the concepts of energy expressed as Work, and which is described as the Torque's rate of change in proportion to angular displacement:

\tau = Fr

Where,

F = Force

r = Radius

Replacing we have that,

\tau = Fr

\tau = 21cm (\frac{1m}{100cm})* 550N

\tau = 11.55Nm

The moment of inertia is given by 2.5kg of the weight in hand by the distance squared to the joint of the body of 24 cm, therefore

I = 0.25Kg\cdot m^2 +(2.5kg)(0.24m)^2

I = 0.394kg\cdot m^2

Finally, angular acceleration is a result of the expression of torque by inertia, therefore

\tau = I\alpha \rightarrow \alpha = \frac{\tau}{I}

\alpha = \frac{11.55}{0.394}

\alpha = 29.3 rad/s^2

PART B)

The work done is equivalent to the torque applied by the distance traveled by 60 °° in radians (\pi / 3), therefore

W = \tau \theta

W = 11.5* \frac{\pi}{3}

W = 12.09J
